Reflecting on the Finished Music Video.

My main role for the filming of our 'In The Sun' video was the Location Manager. This meant that I had to select different areas in the school to be set for the different scenes in the music video. It also included emailing members of staff and making sure that we could use that room or space for filming, and then clearing the space before we began to film. At the end of the shoot, I had to clean away any equipment that we had used and make sure that the room was back to it's original state, and then emailing the teaches again thanking them for letting us use their resources.

As I worked alongside Jamal, our main priority was to select locations that would look the same or at least very similar to the original music video. 

An email that I sent to the LRC Manager. 

On top of being the Location Manager, I also had to help out the Production Managers and film certain shots that had been previously assigned to other individuals in the class, this was because they were in the shot that they needed to film or were doing other tasks like setting up lighting. Filming the shots was very fun but also challenging. We had to match the shots with the ones in the original music video. This was done by checking to see that the people in the frame were in the right position, the tripod was at the correct height and distance and then also that the shots were for the correct duration.  By filming the shots that I was assigned, it gave me the chance to develop my filming skills and also gave me the practice for filming my own music video.
